The cryptocurrency exchange and Web 3 technology company, OKX has partnered with CoinRoutes, a provider of algorithmic trading strategies
and execution management, to enhance crypto trading services for institutional
clients.

Through the partnership,
institutional users with OKX accounts are granted access to an array of
API-enabled trading services, according to a statement shared by the
companies today (Thursday). One of the noteworthy features reportedly introduced by this
collaboration is the inclusion of various order types, encompassing automated
spread trading and multi-asset trading within a single order.

OKX’s Global Chief
Commercial Officer, Lennix Lai, said: “Our expanded integration with
CoinRoutes, one of the largest crypto order execution management systems (OEMS)
in the world, gives OKX institutional users a very powerful partner through
which they can optimize trading strategies.”

By integrating
CoinRoutes’ algorithms into OKX, the companies aim to enhance the trading
experience for institutional clients. CoinRoutes reportedly aims to enhance
clients’ trading strategies with optimal execution by leveraging OKX’s
liquidity. This coincides with the ongoing evolution of the institutional crypto trading landscape.

In July, Finance
Magnates reported that
OKX had released
its ninth consecutive Proof
of Reserves (PoR) report, highlighting a reserve ratio exceeding 100% for a
wide spectrum of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and
Tether (USDT). The cumulative balance of these assets stood at USD $11.3
billion.

The PoR reports gained
prominence following the collapse of the FTX exchange in November last year,
designed to instil confidence among users of centralized cryptocurrency
exchanges. OKX’s crypto reserves have surged USD $3.8
billion since the beginning of the year from USD $7.5 billion.

OKX’s Hong Kong Ventures

In July, OKX managed to onboard
10,000 new users in
Hong Kong within a month following the newly established virtual asset service
providers (VASPs) regime in the country, according to a report by Finance
Magnates. Over the last year and a half, the exchange has strategically
invested in human resources and infrastructure, riding on Hong Kong’s
aspiration to position itself as a digital assets hub.

Gate.io, Huobi, CoinEX,
and even Interactive Brokers are among the companies that have shown an interest
in tapping into the newfound crypto investment opportunity in Hong Kong.
Besides that, the central bank of Hong Kong has urged traditional financial giants
like HSBC, Standard Chartered, and the Bank of China to embrace digital asset
firms as clients.

In
March, OKX launched OKX’s Hong Kong entity (OKX Hong Kong) and applied for a VASP license. The license empowers the exchange to function as a virtual asset
trading platform within the city. Currently, crypto users in Hong Kong can
access the OKX app to transact multiple cryptocurrencies.
